Will You Help Repay a Loan?by Brian J. Stumm, Iota Beta ’92, National President

I CAN’T BELIEVE it has been one year since I was elected your National President. In that time, I’ve been blessed to talk with many undergraduate and alumni KDRs nationwide who have pledged their support to Kappa Delta Rho. That’s very encourag-ing! In the back of my mind, I was expecting my presidency to provide a catalyst for a spirited Brotherhood reflecting the pre-cious resources of our past. By that I mean, examining our sacred traditions carefully and making them relevant for undergraduate KDRs today.

I’m very excited to tell you that one of my expectations, initiated during the presidency of Shawn Hoke, Phi Alpha’95, has been achieved thanks to the tireless efforts of Eugene Spencer, Iota ’76, chair of the Strategic Planning Committee. He and the dedicated members of his committee fashioned a remarkable plan — a roadmap — to plot the course of our Fraternity for the next 100 years. (Turn to page 7 to read Brother Spencer’s article about the Strategic Plan or visit the KDR website at www.kdr.com).

Recently, however, several alumni have asked me why I devote my time and energy to KDR. The answer lies in a quote from one of our National Fraternity presidents who stated that “Kappa Delta Rho is on loan to us, and like all loans, interest and

principal must be repaid.” That statement stuck in my mind and bolstered my commitment to repay my Fraternity for the privilege of having had a remarkable KDR experience — an experience that I’m proud to say shaped my character, my personal life, and my career. For me, those interest and principal payments correlate to my volunteer work for the National Fraternity, first as a direc-tor and second as National President.

I can honestly tell you KDR wouldn’t survive without our gifted volunteers who serve on the National Board of Directors. These 15 directors, along with Executive Director Rosenberg, are the driving force behind our long-term plan to make KDR a haven where honor, education, and leadership excel — a precept that originated with our Founding Fathers in 1905. Many of our directors have made personal sacrifices, both personal and finan-cial, to make KDR one of the most respected fraternities in the National Interfraternity Conference (NIC).

But that’s not the whole picture! Why? Because we need more dedicated volunteers to join us to promote and expand the KDR experience. The question is, “Will you help?”

Are you at a point in your personal and professional life where you can devote some time to be a member of the National Board of Directors? I ask this question because when our Fra-ternity meets in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, next year for its 101st National Convention, delegates will elect seven alumni directors to serve for four-year terms and three undergraduate directors to serve for two-year terms.

The Educational Leadership Instructor Challengeby Hensley Akiboh, Theta ’11 Educational Leadership Instructor

THE EDUCATIONAL LEADERSHIP INSTRUCTOR’S (ELI) role In the Kappa Delta Rho is vital to providing sup-port and guidance to our undergraduate chapters. He is the common link between the National Fraternity and the under-graduate chapters. On a superficial level, he is the Brother who travels from chapter to chapter to enforce rules and regulations, ensure congruency in chapter operations, and help undergraduate Brothers with risk management and recruitment issues. On a deeper level, his job is to be the perfect model of a KDR Brother. He inspires undergraduate chapters to develop a challenging mission while encouraging and enabling them to succeed. These qualities are a result of understanding the five practices of exemplary leadership as described in Kouzes and Posner’s The Leadership Challenge. Having the ability to model the way, inspire a shared vision, challenge the process, enable others to act, and encourage the heart are the ingredi-ents that make a great leader. Kappa Delta Rho’s ELIs know and understand these five practices and are trained to teach them to undergraduate members so that they may become exemplary leaders as well.

For an ELI to be an effective leader he must first model the way and be the perfect example of a KDR Brother. Often-times, non-Greek individuals or even some alumni perceive the ELI’s job as being a “professional frat boy” who is just there to teach guys how to party harder. Obviously, this is a completely inaccurate perception. An ELI establishes the ex-ample in every aspect of our Fraternity, from effective chapter management to being a KDR Gentleman. In order to gain the trust of undergraduate members, he must first build credibility by expressing his personal values and aligning his actions with the values of the Fraternity.

An ELI must also inspire a shared vision and challenge the process. At this point, he should help undergraduates develop a vision for their future. As they begin to step outside their comfort zones, a clearer picture of the future will appear. During this realization period, the ELI helps undergraduate members to strive for excellence. Challenging the process opens new doors to a wealth of opportunities and ideas. He encourages them to take risks and not worry about making mistakes while also reinforcing that the small wins eventually yield success.

The ELI provides opportunities for undergraduate members to achieve their goals. It is imperative, however, that he is careful about how he approaches this process. The ELI enables others to act, not by simply assigning tasks or, inversely, doing it all himself. He fosters an environment of

NATIONAL OFFICE What’s the time commitment? Briefly, directors meet face-to-face twice at year at the Mid-year Meeting in March and the Annual Meeting in August. Monthly, we conduct business by tele-phone conferences. Also, as a board member you will be asked to serve on two committees. Once you’re on board, you may discover that your interests dovetail into a position on our Executive Board.

Right now . . . ask yourself, “How did KDR change my life?” If you had a very positive KDR experience, you may have all the qualities to make you an ideal director-candidate. If you believe it’s time for you to rediscover the KDR experience and learn about the importance of KDR in undergraduates’ lives, then I urge you to e-mail your nomination and any supporting documents to [email protected] by Friday, January 20, 2012. The Nomi-nations Committee, chaired by immediate Past President Hoke, will review all nominations and present a slate of candidates to delegates at the National Convention Business Meeting in August 2012.

WE NEED YOU! And, we need the gift of your presence as a director to help us forge a KDR where you, and other alumni, can use your talents and lifetime experiences to help nurture and guide a new generation of KDRs. That’s a loan repayment each KDR should be proud to support!

BOARD OF DIRECTORS EXPECTATIONSService to the National Fraternity of Kappa Delta Rho as a member of the Board of Directors (BOD) is a highly rewarding volunteer experience. As a member of the BOD, Brothers are expected to:• Attend the annual convention (3 to 5 days)• Interact with convention attendees• Attend the midyear BOD meeting (2 to 3 days)• Participate in monthly conference calls between meetings• Attend regional special events, as available (i.e., chapter dinners, regional conclaves, alumni events, etc.)• Actively participate on at least two committees• Maintain monthly communication (phone and e-mail) with assigned undergraduate chapters• Respond to e-mail communication over the BOD listserve or from the headquarters staff, as necessary• Interact with area alumni, as requested• Financially support the Kappa Delta Rho Foundation’s Annual Fund at what-ever level that they have the financial ability for. The donation (or a pledge) shall occur during the July - September timeframe.• Avoid conflicts of interests between the National Fraternity and their chap-ter and/or alumni corporation• Uphold the Constitution, Bylaws, Policies, Ritual, and Precepts of the National Fraternity In the event that a director fails to attend two consecutive BOD meetings without satisfactory reason and advance notification to the secretary, he shall be deemed to have tendered his resignation and will be replaced in accordance with the National Constitution. All board-related travel and preapproved expenses are reimbursable under the Board Reimbursement Policy.

collaboration and strengthens others by sharing power. He includes everyone who is willing to serve because by keeping everyone in the loop and giving members the ability to play a significant role in accomplishing goals, he makes them feel strong, capable, and committed. If the ELI is successful at this, he will find that he, as a leader, has turned the undergraduate men into leaders themselves.

In order keep the engine running, an ELI must remember to encourage the heart. When he consistently takes time out of

his day to recognize and congratulate individual excellence, he inspires a feeling of self-worth within the member. The simple power of a “thank you” is boundless. The ELI is a KDR Gentle-man who supports his undergraduate Brothers through genuine acts of kindness and caring. This attitude fosters a sense of ap-preciativeness and Brotherhood and should set the chapter on a course for many future successes.

A Return to Values: A Strategic Plan for the Second Centuryby Eugene L. Spencer, Iota ’76Chair, Strategic Planning Committee

BUILDING OUR BROTHERHOOD

It is the goal of The National Fraternity of Kappa Delta Rho to work toward greater strength, prominence, and effectiveness as a national, social, Greek-letter organization with a new Strategic Plan. During our first 100 years, KDR experienced many periods of positive growth and success, followed by moments of disap-pointment and contraction. During the current planning period (2011-2015) and the years that follow, we intend to strengthen and enhance our Fraternity for the long term in a thoughtful, cohesive, and sustainable way.

We believe that the KDR experience already provides im-measurable benefits to our members when fully embraced and boldly lived. During a Brother’s college years, his intellectual, social, spiritual, emotional, ethical, and physical growth can be dramatically improved by the friendships, leadership opportuni-ties, education, and other experiences that membership brings. As an alumnus, continued involvement in KDR can help enhance relationships, build networks, and support the experiences of younger Brothers who follow in our footsteps. We believe that the current KDR experience can be improved and that it can provide lasting benefits to a growing number of Brothers.

At the beginning of its second century, The National Frater-nity of Kappa Delta Rho faces a unique opportunity for growth and development that is both bold and sustainable. This Strategic Plan proposes to leverage our resources through seven strategies that include Three Overarching Strategies and Four Supporting Strategies. This is our plan to build our Brotherhood!

THREE OVERARCHING STRATEGIES FOR GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT

This Strategic Plan focuses on deliber-ately building our Brotherhood through an ongoing cycle of improvement, growth, and strength. Through this plan, we will create momentum and support that can directly serve and benefit key stakeholders, including active and alumni Brothers, our alumni associations and corporations, the leadership of the National Fraternity and Foundation, host institutions (and in particular their student life and Greek affairs efforts), and to some extent the greater interfra-ternity world.

Growth and development for The National Fraternity of Kappa Delta Rho will occur through simultaneous progress on Three Overarching Strategies that define the highest goals we expect to accomplish under this plan:

1. Enhance Education and Leadership Development

2. Grow Chapters and Members

3. Strengthen National Operations

These strategies will leverage each other when approached together over a sustained period (e.g., the five years of this plan and beyond). Most importantly, we will significantly Enhance Our Education and Leadership Development efforts across our chapters, increasing the value of Brotherhood for all members. This first strategy is based on the belief that developing young men is our core business, and that our educational and leadership programming is our most important product. By improving our educational efforts, we will also be able to Grow Chapters and Members, because Kappa Delta Rho will become more appeal-ing to new recruits within our active chapters, and we will be more attractive to institutions seeking high-quality organizations to enhance strong Greek communities. We will also be able to reengage dedicated and loyal alumni who will benefit from improvements in their local chapters. As both the quality and quantity of our membership expands, we will naturally Strength-

en National Operations with new energy, ideas, and resources, allowing it to become stronger and more proactive in its programming efforts and its ability to support additional Brothers and chapters. The synergy of accomplishing these Three Overarching Strategies at the same time is crucial; improve-ments in one area will naturally strengthen the other two, and long-lasting success will be assured by concurrent progress in all three.

FOUR FOUNDATIONAL STRATEGIES THAT SUPPORT IMPROVEMENT

While the Three Over-arching Strategies will provide tangible benefits to the National Frater-nity, the Four Foundational Strategies will create a solid founda-tion upon which our improvement efforts can be built. Develop-ments in each of these areas will reinforce the others, and will directly support the Overarching Strategies. We expect these Foundational Strategies to build momentum that will support and strengthen our ability to accomplish our greatest goals:

4. Focus on Living Our Values

5. Expand Communications

6. Improve Alumni Relations

7. Strengthen Our Financial Position

First and foremost, we will Focus on Living Our Values within our chapters and our membership by improving our commitment to Honor Super Omnia and other KDR values in our daily lives. We will focus on holding ourselves and each other accountable for our intentions and actions, and creat-ing higher expectations of good chapter and member behavior. Every improvement in these areas will ensure that we are better community members at our host institutions, better representa-tives of the interfraternity world, and more loyal to the values that our alumni hold dear. We will also Expand Communica-tions among our Brothers (active and alumni), between chapters, among the National Fraternity and its stakeholders, within the Board of Directors and the Kappa Delta Rho Foundation, and to/from our host institutions. Our efforts to Improve Alumni Relations will provide ongoing benefits to active chapters (and to dormant chapters wishing to recolonize), create opportunities

for alumni to mentor active Brothers, and enhance our fundrais-ing potential. Finally, as we Strengthen Our Financial Position, we will not only become more effective in leveraging our current assets, but we will also capture the great-est benefit from each new resource that becomes available to us.

Each of these Four Foundational Strategies will also contribute deeply to the Three Overarch-ing Strategies. For example, the Strength of National Opera-tions will be enhanced by increasing the participation of dedicated alumni, by the good management of resources, and by

our chapters exhibiting KDR’s values at our host institutions. Similarly, our ability to Grow Chapters and Members will be enhanced by more effective communications, the availability of adequate resources, and the active participation of alumni who can help guide and mentor the young men who have recently become our Brothers.

SUMMARY

Our Fraternity exists in a very complex environment with a variety of key stakeholders. Many components of our cycle of growth and development must move forward together, especially considering the interconnected needs and expectations of these constituents.

This Strategic Plan is a roadmap for growth of the National Fraternity, for health of our active chapters and alumni associa-tions, and for greater aspirations for each of us as Brothers and for Kappa Delta Rho as a Brotherhood. As we accomplish these plans over the next five years, we will build a stronger, more vibrant KDR that will be more relevant within the Greek com-munity. In doing so, we will have transformed Kappa Delta Rho from a small but respectable Fraternity into a more effective and prominent organization with greater aspirations and the means to accomplish them.

We invite all active and alumni Brothers, friends, donors, and other stakeholders to participate in this effort to further build our Brotherhood.

by Matthew R. Lenno, Alpha Beta ’95, Vice President of Education and Joseph S. Rosenberg, Xi Alpha ‘96, Executive Director

THE CONCEPT AND STRUCTURE of the Elmon M. William Leadership Academy was totally revised for 2010 with the intro-duction of a new model called the “Tool Box Model.” Brothers attending the academy were provided with actual tools and/or certifications in the following areas: Risk Management, Diver-sity, CPR/AED, Wellness, Change Management, and Sexual Harassment. The book Stand Your Ground: Building Honorable Leaders the West Point Way by Offstein (2006) provided the foundation for the new model. The book discusses how honor is used as a leadership development tool with students at the U.S. Military Academy. In each presentation, speakers included the concept of honor and how it related to the session and the Fraternity. After the presentations, breakout sessions offered an opportunity for Brothers to process the concepts. Past National President Shawn Hoke, Phi Alpha ’95; Past Executive Director Joseph Rees, Nu ’00; Scott Bradley, Zeta Beta ’00; Peter Tartaro,

Lambda Beta ’00; and JC Lopez, Kappa Beta ’00, led undergrad-uate Brothers in discussions connecting the material presented to the daily operations of their chapters.

The overall desired objective for the leadership academy was to provide a high level of Interpersonal Competence. The immediate desired objective, however, was to give an enjoyable experience that allowed undergraduates to develop their listening skills, learn to ask thoughtful questions, provide the opportunity for self-disclosure, give feedback to the national leadership, and participate in dialogues to increase their knowledge base. There were five key desired learning outcomes for the leadership acad-emy experience:

1. To have one Brother for each chapter trained in CPR.

2. To have participants know what constitutes sexual harass-ment and how to mitigate it within their chapters.

3. To know how to celebrate diversity within their chapters.

4. To learn how undergraduates can be a resource and support system for their fellow members who may need help from men-tal health professionals.

Advisor of the Year

KDR Introduces New Leadership Academy Model5. To learn how to effect change positively within their chapters and gain knowledge on how to conduct the Ritual correctly.

In order to determine if we achieved our learning objectives, we created and facilitated a pretest and a posttest to gather data on the impact of the program on the knowledge base of under-graduates. We selected 30 undergraduates from the pool of 73 who had registered for the academy. This represented 41 percent of the undergraduate participants. In addition, we facilitated a posttest of all 73 participants on the last day to measure the knowledge gained from our educational experience.

Out of the 30 undergraduate Brothers who took the pretest, 14 of them were chapter consuls. The pretest contained 25 ques-tions regarding information from the educational sessions, Frater-nity policies and procedures, and main themes from the required reading by Offstein, which was the main primer for the academy. The average score on the pretest was 57.4 percent, with the low-est score being 28 percent and the highest score being 88 percent. There was a significant change in the test scores after the acad-emy concluded. As was noted, we tested all the participants using the same instrument that was used for the pretest. Those who originally took the pretest were coded so we could measure the improvement in their test scores and subsequently on the knowl-edge gained in the various areas concerning chapter operations, policies, procedures, leadership skills, and communications skills. The pretest group experienced an average increase of 21.08 per-cent or 11 points. The average posttest score for those who took the pretest was 70.2 percent with the high score being 92 percent.

The undergraduate Brother who received the lowest score of 28 on the pretest experienced a significant improvement of 40 points, or 142 percent increase, for a test score of 68 percent.

In order to ensure that the higher scores were not a result of the group having previously taken the pretest, we compared their results from the remaining undergraduate Brothers who partici-pated in the academy, but did not take the pretest. The difference in score (.9) on the posttest between the Brothers who did not take the pretest and those who did was miniscule. We were able to segment the study group further by randomly including 12 con-suls within the pretest group. The average score on the pretest by our consuls’ group was 62.2 percent with the lowest score being 56 percent. Interestingly, the impact on the consuls’ knowledge base was lower by more than three percentage points for an 18.8 percent increase in their scores for a 74 percent. It is important to note the posttest scores of the consuls were 4 percent higher than those undergraduates who are not consuls and took the pretest.

The level of sophistication we have obtained in assessing the impact of our educational programs is unparalleled within the fra-ternal world, ensuring that we provide the very best educational leadership experience for our undergraduate Brothers. We will be taking what we learned from the establishment and creation of our assessment center and the data obtained from the 29th Annual Elmon M. Williams Leadership Academy and apply it to the inau-gural Consuls Academy scheduled for January 13-16, 2012, at the Sheraton Station Square in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

FRIDAY AND SATURDAY, MAY 13-14, 2011, was a mo-mentous occasion for Sigma alumni who gathered together to recognize KDR Founders Day. On Friday, 75 Brothers partici-pated in the initiation ceremony of Dave Thom who was part of The Great Sigma Pledge Class of 1975 --- possibly the longest pledgeship in KDR history. David Clark, Iota Beta ‘01, lead the way to make the ceremony and the ritual a huge success.

On Saturday, more than 100 Brothers welcomed National President Brian Stumm at our banquet to honor of John McClure ‘47 for his 65 years of loyal dedication. John’s son Craig ‘76 was also awarded our 2010 Sigma Alumnus of the Year.

A very large number of Brothers in attendance were gradu-ates from the 1960s, many of whom had not seen each other in more than 40 years. Bob Davis ‘54 and Past National President Bob Swinney ‘55 had not seen each other in 54 years! It was heartwarming to see so many Sigma Brothers reconnect.

KDR Honors 9/11 Brothersby Joseph S. Rosenberg, Xi Alpha ’96

EARLIER THIS YEAR, we celebrated the 10th anniversary of the attack on the World Trade Center. It is one of those tragic moments in history. In fact, most people can remember where they were and what they were doing at the exact moment of this historical event. For me, I was director of student life at Al-bright College getting ready for another day on campus helping students with their organizations and their personal problems. Little did I know that at 8:45 a.m. life, as we knew it in America, would change dramatically for all of us. On that day, 2,966 people lost their lives in the attacks. Sadly for Kappa Delta Rho, we lost two Brothers, Tyler Ugolyn and Mark Ryan McGinly.

Tyler Ugolyn, Nu Alpha ’01, Columbia University, was an outstanding NCAA student-athlete who, as a 6’4” senior at Ridgefield High School in Connecticut, was ranked as one of the top 275 basketball players in the country, nominated to the McDonald’s All-American team, and mentioned as an Honor-able All-American by Blue Ribbon College Basketball Yearbook. Recruited by more than 50 colleges, he selected Columbia where he excelled both on and off the court cofounding Columbia Catholic Athletes and a weekly basketball clinic for Harlem-area youngsters besides volunteering his time at a soup kitchen. As a Nu Alpha Brother, he served in leadership positions as vice president, secretary, and webmaster.

Upon graduation from Columbia in 2001, Tyler began his first job working as an equity research analyst on Wall Street for Fred Alger Management, a leading investment management firm, based on the 93th floor of the North Tower in the World Trade Center. He, along with David Alger, the firm’s president and legendary money manager, and 35 of the firm’s overall 55 em-ployees were lost on September 11. The following week Sports Illustrated honored Tyler’s memory with the article “Picture this Perfect,” written by Jeff Pearlman.

As the years have passed, Tyler’s legacy has spread beyond the courts, but it is usually related to the sport of basketball, which he loved. His parents, Victor and Diane, and younger brother, Trevor, established the Tyler Ugolyn Foundation in 2001 to honor his memory. The foundation provides support to youth basketball, with an emphasis on court refurbishment and provid-ing financial support to character building educational programs and skills clinics to children in urban settings. The foundation annually, as an official member of the NCAA Final Four Men’s Championship Community Initiative, renovates an inner-city basketball court in the community hosting the championship games. The courts are named “Tyler’s Court,” To date courts have been renovated and dedicated in San Antonio, Texas; De-troit, Michigan; Indianapolis, Indiana; and Houston, Texas, with New Orleans, Louisiana, scheduled for next year. The foundation also renovated courts in Springfield, Massachusetts, during the

Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame Enshrinement week in a unique public-private partnership with the City of Spring-field where Tyler was born.

Mark Ryan McGinly, Iota ’97, Bucknell University, was born on December 24, 1974, in Washington (Georgetown), D.C. — “The greatest Christmas present imaginable,” according to his father Bill McGinly. Mark graduated from Madison High School in 1993. He entered Bucknell following in the footsteps of his high school basketball teammate, Kevin Wenk. Mark played golf at Bucknell and joined Kappa Delta Rho, while Wenk, a member of the Sigma Chi fraternity, continued to play basketball. Upon

graduation Brother McGinly was employed by Merrill Lynch. At the time of the attacks, Mark was working for Carr Futures as a precious metals trader.

Mark’s Brother, Sean McGinly, created a documentary titled Brothers Lost telling the story of 31 men who lost their brothers during the attacks. For the fifth anniversary of the attacks, HBO bought the film, premiering it in New York City. “I’ve thought

a lot about Mark and what it really means to have, and lose, a brother,” Sean’s voice says in the documentary. “He died in an instant, and in many ways it was almost like he had just van-ished.”

The McGinly family has spent the past 10 years trying to make sure Mark’s memory does not vanish. The movie and a scholarship fund the family created in Mark’s name have carried the McGinlys through difficult moments. Incidentally, Drew McGinly, another brother, took his carrier landing tests on Sep-tember 11, 2002, exactly one year after his brother was killed. While attending the weddings of Mark’s college and high school friends, the McGinlys often wonder what their own son’s wed-ding would have been like. Every day, they wear silver bracelets engraved with Mark’s name and WTC as a constant reminder.

“I always wondered about why people would have plaques. I never really liked them. And then I lost my son,” McGinly said, wiping clean the granite monument honoring his son, which has a photo that reveals straight lines of slicked black hair, bright eyes, and a sly grin. “Now, my biggest fear is that no one will remember him.”

Tyler and Mark exemplify what the KDR Brotherhood stands for — Gentlemen who promote human dignity, positive relationships, moral excellence, high ideals, and service to man-kind as their brothers’ keepers.

Visit www.TylerUgolyn.com for more information about Ty-ler Ugolyn. Donations may be sent to The Tyler Ugolyn Founda-tion, 17 Cardinal Court, Ridgefield, CT 06877.

Information about Brother Mark Ryan McGinly was gath-ered from an article that appeared on the Vienna.patch.com website, September 11, 2011.

One of our special guests was Brother Von Stephens ‘79 who has Multiple Sclerosis and is confined to a wheelchair. Sigma alumni funded his trip from Chugiak, Alaska, and he was again able to see his wife who was in a care facility (unfortunately she passed away on July 16). Other honored guests were Bill Brennan (and his wife Kay), our dean of men who always seemed to be available to help the Sigma Alumni Association and the National Fraternity. Marianne Mae Shirtcliff Major and Desi Fauble the daughter and granddaughter of our long-time housemother Mae “Mom” Shirtcliff (the longest tenured housemother in the nation) attended and met many of the Brothers who “Mom” had spoken about. It was an honor to have those guests attend our special day.

The northbound Sigma Train continues to roll on with plans to recolonize the Sigma Chapter in 2013, and we wel-comed Executive Director Joseph Rosenberg to Corvallis on November 5. Our next Founders Day event is scheduled for May 2013, and what a day that will be. Once again, Sigma alumni are back — Together in Brotherhood!

CHAPTER NEWSAlpha Society, Middlebury College

The Alpha Society had a great start to the aca-demic year. Throughout

the fall semester, we have enjoyed numerous alumni stopping by to visit the chapter. In com-munity outreach, we carved pumpkins for nursing home residents at Porter Rehabilitation Center and continued our tradition of playing bingo with the residents. We also facilitated a school-wide alcohol awareness event geared towards promot-ing safety and respect to the college environment. We are looking forward to a great spring semester and would like to thank our alumni and Brothers for their continued support.

Beta Chapter,Cornell University

The year 2011 has proven a challenging yet rewarding time for the Beta Chapter. Coming off of two semesters of disappointing

recruitments, we entered this fall with the small-est number of members the chapter has seen in quite a while. Still, our active Brothers have rallied and committed themselves to the chapter in a manner that was truly humbling. The weight of responsibility of the worthy consul has been lightened significantly, given the truly exceptional nature of all the Brothers. From the members of our Executive Board to the newly initiated Broth-ers from the spring semester, each has pitched in to get our chapter excited and energized. This comes at a critical time for us, as we plan to celebrate our centennial in just two years; it was in May 1913 that KDR expanded to her sec-ond campus. You can expect to hear more about our plans for celebrating this important milestone soon, since our Alumni Board has begun the planning process. We are taking this once-in-a-generation opportunity to think constructively about what makes our chapter great, and how to make it even better as we enter the second century of the Beta Chapter. The biggest part of this adventure is learning how best to focus our recruitment efforts, and how to ensure that each of our new member classes contains the brightest young leaders that Cornell has to offer. Our rush chair is working incredibly hard with the rest of the Brotherhood to implement a strong, dynamic recruitment strategy with these goals in mind. One of the hallmarks of our chapter is the chapter house, which stands at 312 Highland Road (and has been around since 1909). Any attempt to refocus the Beta Chapter has to take our house into account, which needs of some important work. But already, projects are underway, and we are planning to put a new roof on the house before the harsh Ithaca winter sets in. Hopefully, with the centennial looming, we will be able to embark on more ambitions renovations. At the same time, our entire Greek system at Cornell has been under increased pressure and scrutiny, beginning with a complete ban on interacting with freshmen before Columbus Day weekend. We can report that we weathered the first year of this new policy without incident. We have been impressed by the seriousness with which our IFC Executive Board has dealt with the

pressures and changes. Many of their initiatives were set in motion by Brother Allen Miller ‘11, the 2010 IFC president. The active chapter is working hard to as-semble a sizable new member class for the spring and lay the groundwork for future recruitment successes. And, our Alumni Corporation board (with the added energy of three new directors) is gathering steam on both the centennial celebra-tion and major house improvements.

Epsilon Chapter,Franklin CollegeThe Brothers once again held their annual

Pancake Breakfast on Homecoming weekend and it was a great success with many alumni in attendance. We continue to support the Boys and Girls Club of Franklin and we will be facilitating several lock-ins this academic year. Our chapter officers have made a decision to increase our efforts in the area of philanthropy. In order to achieve an increase in our philanthropic activities we will be facilitating and sponsoring an event with the women of Zeta Tau Alpha to benefit the B+ Foundation.

Eta Chapter,University of Illinois at

Urbana-ChampaignThe Brothers of Eta Chapter had a very successful recruitment period this fall semester. We were

able to recruit 23 exceptional men. This pledge class is the largest since the 2008 fall semester. For the fall semester we will be cosponsoring a philanthropy event with the sisters of Alpha Epsilon Phi entitled Ballin’ on Dubs. The event is a wheelchair basketball tournament where teams from fraternities and sororities compete. All the proceeds go to university sports camps for disabled athletes.

Theta Chapter, Purdue University

The Brothers of Theta Chapter are having a great fall semester. We recently completed major exterior renovations to the front lawn,

building new and beautiful flower beds around our flagpole and front sign. Brother Yadav-Ranjan is currently writing daily articles as the opinions editor for The Exponent, Purdue’s student newspaper. Currently, Brothers Mark Clement, Will Brown, Siddhesh Dere, Holland Andrew, Stephen Christopher, Sean McManus, and Colin Mills are involved in the planning and preparation of the Purdue University Dance Marathon, the largest philanthropy at the university. Brother Danny Kenney is a member of Delta Council, a junior organization that prepares young Greeks for positions in the Interfraternity Council. Also, Brother Aranya Kishore is a member of another Interfraternity Council association named Caliber. We are looking forward to another strong year of academic achievement, philanthropies, and overall development of our Brotherhood.

Alpha Alpha Chapter,Lock Haven University

Homecoming this year was a great success. We had a great turnout of alumni Brothers at our events and a lot of support in turning the chapter

around. Our chapter is still rushing hard and we have had the first fall pledge class in many years. This year we were the only fraternity to have a Brother (Corey Salamido) in the Homecoming court. He was accompanied by our Chapter Sweetheart, Chelsea Garrett. We are looking forward to a successful first-year recruitment period in the spring semester and improving Alpha Alpha Chapter to be one of the best fraternities on the Lock Haven campus and within the Central Region of Kappa Delta Rho.

Eta Alpha Chapter,Robert Morris University

The Brothers are very excited about this academic year. We started by having our Brothers help with freshman move-in.

One of our community service events for this year is working with Top Soccer, which is a local organization helping special needs children to learn how to play soccer while providing a safe environment for them to exercise and socialize with other children. In addition, the chapter is creating an annual flag football tournament to help KDR Kids. In an effort to improve our academic standing within the Robert Morris community and the National Fraternity, we have implemented a new policy for academic success. We currently have many KDR campus leaders, including the current IFC president, Tyler Bradley.

Tau Alpha Chapter, Radford University

Spring semester concluded as one of the most successful semesters in Kappa Delta Rho’s 25-year history at Radford University. We added

nine new members then, and have recently added four associate members who are leaders and respectable men in their own right. Only 20 students rushed for the fall semester. Since the university carries 10 active fraternities, the four quality men we pledged constituted a success, but we are always looking to improve. We continue to offer support to Brother Brian Kincaid who has experienced some recent health issues. Through the support of our Brotherhood and proper treatment, we are scheduled to have him back in spring 2012, and look forward to what he can bring us yet again. Academically, we have done the best in our recent history, and we will continue to strive for academic honors. We have also added Brandi McKee to our team as our faculty advisor. She will

CHAPTER NEWSguide us towards accomplishing our organization goals. The chapter is moving in the right direction as we build on the Most Improved Chapter awarded to us during convention, and we visual-ize complete success moving forward.

Alpha Beta Chapter,University of Delaware

The Brothers entered the new academic year with high expecta-tions. One of the major areas of improvement the chapter is

aiming for this year is in overall philanthropic donations, as we plan to step up our fundraising efforts. Between our fall philanthropy, the Halloween Haunted Mansion, and the spring philanthropy, Hula for Hope, we have a goal to raise at least $3,000. As always, the proceeds will be donated to our favorite charity, the Andrew McDonough B+ Foundation. We entered recruitment with a selective mindset, as we started the semester with approxi-mately 60 Brothers, and we did not see the need to increase numbers drastically. At the conclusion of the recruitment process this fall, the chapter added 16 high-quality new members who are involved in other extracurricular activities. We wanted to emphasize the importance of campus involvement with this new member class. We continue to increase our efforts to engage the surrounding community. The chapter will be returning to Camp Oest in Maryland to help the Boy Scouts of America to winterizing the camp. We have been doing volunteer work in Oest ever since we were founded in 1986. Additionally, Brothers volunteered at the Saegerbund Okto-berfest festival in Newark, Delaware, this past September. Our Brothers served as food vendors and maintained crowd control. The chapter partnered with Alpha Sigma Alpha for Homecoming Week. We have strong relations with the women of Alpha Sigma Alpha and in ad-dition to Homecoming Week we will be cohosting our spring philanthropy called the Hula for Hope.

Epsilon Beta Chapter,Old Dominion University

The chapter leadership has as its main goal for this academic year to grow the chapter. During fall recruitment we recruited

eight exceptional Gentlemen. These eight new Brothers will strengthen our chapter and bring a new excitement and perspective to our activities. One of the Brothers pulling more than his own weight is Brother Chris Coates who serves as IFC executive president. He has become well-known throughout the university and he is helping us to become very visible on campus. At the 100th National Convention, our chapter placed second nationally in the area of community service, with a strong group of undergraduate Brothers. They were excited about this accomplishment, and they have committed themselves to increase their community service and bring home First Place from the 101st National Convention in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. We are continuing our tradition of participating in Boo at the Zoo where Brothers dress up and help pass out candy to local youth. One of the other

events we are planning is a car bash to help raise money for Ronald McDonald House. Our goal is to raise more than $500. Brothers are looking forward to a promising year full of growth, service, and Brotherhood.

Iota Beta Chapter,Rochester Institute of Technology

The Brothers have started the new academic year strong with a pledge class

of eight Gentlemen. Our goal is to increase membership by 20 active members by the end of this academic year. If we are able to accomplish this goal we will have a chapter membership of more than 50 Brothers. We are looking forward to this academic year’s Formal Rush Dinners where we once again hope to have Grand Pontifex Paul Downes, Gamma ’68, in attendance. As a chapter, we are proud of the standards we set for ourselves in campus involvement and community service, and plan to continue that commitment through this academic year. Prepa-rations are under way for our major philanthropy events, including Penny Wars and Beach Day both of which were incredibly successful last year in attendance and raising money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation and The Golisano Children’s Hospital. In addition, we will be hosting campus clean-ups, can drives, and volunteering for the Walk for Autism event with Alpha Xi Delta. We have built a strong foundation with the chapter to allow us to begin focusing on involve-ment with other KDR chapters in the region. The chapter also is pursuing philanthropic ventures with our Beta Chapter at Cornell University to strengthen our ties with the only other active chapter in upstate New York. Our chapter is committed to strengthening our image at RIT, promoting Greek-wide events and promoting growth through our Brothers on the IFC and GAMMA executive boards. Through service to the campus and community, as well as positive recruitment and scholarship, our chapter hopes to acquire a newly vacated Greek mansion on campus, as the next step in our path at RIT.

Phi Beta Chapter,The College of William and Mary

The Phi Beta Chapter began the new academic year with a bang by recruiting 17 quality young men, which is a record for our

chapter during any recruitment period. Alpha Gamma Chapter,University of Detroit Mercy

The Brothers have taken great strides to become the best Fraternity on our campus. We are continu-

ing our alternative meetings where we offer programs to provide educational, health, and career information to help in the development of our Brothers. This year, we have scheduled a self-defense class, an alumni night where alumni come and talk about their job fields and resume building, and plan to have the UDM president speak on the betterment of ourselves and our university.

One of our goals is to improve and increase our service hours in our local neighborhood, as well as work with the men’s and women’s basketball team for the B+ Leukemia Foundation.

Beta Gamma Chapter,Christopher Newport University

The Brothers were very happy with their accomplishments at

the 100th National Convention. We received the following awards and distinctions: Keystone Cup, Best Faculty Relations, Chapter Advisor of the Year (awarded to Ms. Brandi McKee), Best Intramural Sports, six of the twelve South Regional awards, and a total of $5,000 in scholarship awards to men from our chapter. During the fall recruitment period we recruited six Gentlemen. This is the biggest fall class that our chapter has had since being chartered in 2006. We have very high hopes for these new members and what they will bring to our chapter. We continue to build upon our outstanding faculty relations by hosting a faculty-student soft-ball game during the fall semester. We also are continuing to participate in intramural sports by having a team in nearly every sport that is offered by the university. Our involvement on campus occurs in many different ways, including cospon-soring a risk management event-presentation with the Campus Activities Board, cosponsoring an event with an organization called To Write Love On Her Arms (TWLOHA), which is a nonprofit movement dedicated to presenting hope and finding help for people struggling with depres-sion, addiction, self-injury, and suicide. TWLOHA exists to encourage, inform, inspire, and invest directly into treatment and recovery. Our main focus in the area of philanthropy for the fall semester has been to facilitate a program to collect items to send to American soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan. The program ended with

a benefit concert on campus that also brought in items, and money to purchase items, to send to the troops. The spring semester philanthropy project is a 5k race to benefit the B+ Foundation. We hope to include other KDR chapters in the region with this project. We are striving to have this event be the biggest one we have ever had, and possibly the biggest event that any organiza-tion has done on our campus. The chapter, along with the Catholic Campus Ministries, planted a tree in memory of Nick Smith, a great Brother, who we sadly lost at the end of last academic year and who we deeply miss.

Epsilon Gamma Chapter,University of Texas of the Permian Basin

The Brothers of Epsilon Gamma Chapter had its first official recruitment week, and it was very successful. We were able

to recruit nine outstanding Gentlemen. We have multiple fundraising events planned, starting with a community curb painting. We are also working on a philanthropy event with the Boys and Girls Club called Pins for Pips by holding a bowling event to raise money. The university is buzzing with the excitement of Greek life, especially with our appearances at all sporting events and competition in intramurals. There are currently two sororities beginning the process to join the new Greek community. We are working hard with them to help Greek life grow on our young campus. The first academic year as the Epsilon Gamma Chapter has just begun, but it is full of excitement, progress, and promise.

National Secretary Gerald Murray, Theta ’66,

delivering the Keynote Speech at the Epsilon Gamma Chartering Ceremony.

ON THE EVE OF CELEBRATING our 100th annual meeting as a National Fraternity we chartered our second chapter in the state of Texas, the Epsilon Gamma chapter. Our newest chapter is located at the University of Texas ofthe Permian Basin in Odessa, Texas. There were 20 undergraduate in attendance from the Epsilon Gamma Provisional Chapter to be initiated into the Fraternity. National President, Brian J. Stumm, Iota Beta ’92 officiated over the chartering ceremony. The keynote speaker for the chartering ceremony was Gerald Murray, Theta ’66. In Brother Murray’s keynote speech he spoke about the benefit of membership, lesson learned, and the opportunities provided to him by the Fraternity. After the keynote speech came the moment that these men worked so hard for the past year which was receiving their Brother plaque. All of the members of the newly chartered Epsilon Gamma chapter were recognized and those in attendance received their Brother plaques from Brother Zachary Russell, Zeta Beta ’00. Epsilon Gamma’s Charter was presented to Consul, Joseph Sarradet, Epsilon Gamma ’12 by President Stumm. The Brothers from the Epsilon Chapter who were not able to make the ceremony were initiated on Saturday, September 4, 2011 with Assistant Director of Chapter Operations, Shane Henry, Zeta Beta ’09 presiding over the ritual of initiation.

The chartering celebration was a perfect time to kick off the Alumni festivities at the 100th National Convention. We look for-ward to great things from the Brothers of the Epsilon Gamma Chapter.

by Michael E. Mueller, Eta ’95, KDR Foundation President

IF YOU DID NOT ATTEND the Elmon M. Williams Leadership Academy and National Convention in Irving, Texas, in August, you missed out on a number of opportunities to experience Kappa Delta Rho’s extraordinary brilliance. This year, the National Fraternity, using a new education model, constructed an array of phenomenal cutting-edge leadership programs for undergraduate Brothers that were funded by the Kappa Delta Rho Foundation. Coming away from Texas, I was convinced that WE ARE educating Brothers to be the innovators and problems solvers the nation and the world desperately needs.

As I stated in the spring edition of the Quill & Scroll, most Brothers do not seem to comprehend the strategic importance of the Foundation. I went on to say that the Foundation is more than just the Annual Fund, the Founders Society, the Order of the Peregrine Falcon, and the Heritage Society. I believe the Foundation is a vehicle that will provide for the future of KDR, and that the Foundation is primarily about each Brother and his personal relationship with KDR.

For this edition, I have asked Brother Gregg Klein to share with you the results of the 2010-11 Annual Fund, and Thomas Mc-Comb to relate to you how the Heritage Society helps to promote excellence in Fraternity programming.

by Gregg M. Klein, Omicron Alpha ’96 Vice President of the Annual Fund

THE GOOD NEWS is that since spring, I have received a number of very positive e-mails and phone calls from KDR alumni inquiring about their participation in the Annual Fund. Several alumni said they have only recently realized that the future of KDR comes with a price tag, and they were eager to step up and contribute their portion of the loan interest and principal on our great Fraternity. The feedback has been extremely rewarding allowing me the chance to communicate with alumni one-on-one.

And, the good news is that Annual Fund donations for Fiscal Year 2011, which ended on June 30, increased by almost 2 percent from the preceding fiscal year. Here are some other statis-tics that will interest you!

These numbers are very encouraging in the midst of turbulent economic times. But even though the number of donors increased, this still represents less than 4 percent of our 17,000 liv-ing KDR members.

Annual Fund Donations Exceed Expectations

This year, as you consider your donations to charitable orga-nizations, only you can determine the extent Kappa Delta Rho has influenced your life, and only you can decide how much you can give to the Annual Fund. But remember, your contribution is a two-fold LEGACY . . . repaying for the past and laying the foundation for the future.

Do you need more information about the Annual Fund? Then, call me at (973) 951-3657 or e-mail me at [email protected]

Heritage Society Increases Visibility

IN THE SPRING ISSUE of the Quill & Scroll, I pointed out the variety of ways that you can have a significant impact on the future of our Fraternity. When you decide to make the Foundation a beneficiary of your estate plans, you become a member of the Heritage Society — a group of devoted alumni worldwide who strive to perpetuate the values of our Founding Fathers and provide an environment for undergraduate KDRs that promotes honor, integrity, and excellence in education and leadership.

As our plans for the Heritage Society expand to include more of our alumni actively participating in our mission to educate outstanding leaders, I encourage you to consider adding your name to the prominent list of Heritage Society mem-bers below.

Today, pick up the phone or sit down at your computer and e-mail Arthur Smith, Xi ’57 (419) 893-6922, [email protected]; Brian Sagrestano, Beta ’92 (315) 292-1335, [email protected]; or me (941) 349-3455, [email protected] to initiate a discussion about your estate plans and discover the tremendous impact you can have on the education of undergraduate KDRs.

INVEST IN THE LIVES OF UNDERGRADUATE KDRs. . . SUPPORT THE KAPPA DELTA RHO FOUNDATION!

Board of Trustees member Art Smith, Xi ’54 with his wife Connie at the Ordo Honoris Banquet at the 98th Annual National Convention in Roanoke, Virginia.
